Luxurious seaside escape.
Nestled in the rolling hills of Monterey Bay, The Sanctuary Beach Resort delights guests with its stunning landscape, ocean breeze, and coastal-meets-lodge décor.
Insider Tip

Take advantage of complimentary nature walks and yoga on the Marina State Beach where the dunes rise dramatically to 150 feet above the ocean, then return to the resort to enjoy the nightly bonfire on the beach bluff.

Where You’re Staying

Bungalows hug the beach in quaint groupings to ensure stunning views of the undisturbed stretch of shoreline. All 60 rooms and suites include a private patio or terrace.

Where to Dine

Salt Wood Kitchen & Oysterette features the bounty of California’s coast with new American cuisine. The restaurant offers an oyster bar and a live-fire open kitchen.

Where to Relax

Inspired by the tranquility of the ocean, the spa incorporates elements of land and sea into its customized, holistic approach to wellness. Refresh and inspire your mind, body, and soul with a therapeutic massage or signature facial.

What to Do

Head to Monterey Bay Aquarium for a lesson on sea life, followed by exploring downtown Monterey. Prepare to be amazed when you attend the annual Whalefest, celebrating the return of migrating gray whales. Stroll the beach with a culinary picnic in hand.
